o Puzzle 501 – all time machines are an instrument of seeing time. The puzzle reverses the role of the the traditional watch. The objective of most watches is to see the time. Not the Puzzle. The automatic movement time can’t be seen until the Patent Pending lever on the right hand side slides out to reveal the time. Aside from this feature, the Puzzle also has 9 moveable square parts that move to allow different portions of the watch to be revealed. Or, if you are bored, you can play the puzzle game.
